Default Atama/Banga
So anywho Thursday is my Naija food day, i decided to make the easiest soup I can, Atama/Banga
Fufu
Palm Creme
Atama Leaves

Oxtail
Neck Bones
Shaki
Crayfish
Maggi
Small Onion
PEPPER!


Uziza(i ran out of Banga spice so I used Uziza which is used for peper soup but is really similar to Banga spice)

Atama Leaves crumbled

After meat is cooked, i added the palm creme

Then the atama, simmered for like 10 min on low heat

Voila!

its just banga with the atama leaf, it adds a slightly different flavour, usually there is more atama but sha i can only take so much, oh yeah in Akawa Ibom and Cross River they call it Atama

Abak Atama is what they call it in Akwa Ibom & Cross River States because of the leaf, and in Delta and Edo State we call it Banga but we do not add the leaf
